Looking for Jack Stands? Check These Out!

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1464121694.png

With Summer winding down, many enthusiasts are already starting to plan their next projects for the Fall and the one 'tool' that's a must for every garage is a solid set of jack-stands. With a ton of options on the market and price points all over the place, the one question every car guy/gal ask themselves is, 'are these going to keep me and my car safe?' Us Pelicans want to make sure that the answer is always YES, so we always recommend the ESCO jack-stands when asked which option to go with. We trust them so much, that they were used when working on our Ferret Scout. Check out the picture below!

Available as a flat top lined with a hard, rubber cushion or your conventional, v-shaped post. Can’t decide which stand version you want or need? We now have additional axle posts available so that you can have the best of both worlds!

Some pictures show one adjustment hole in the base and some show two. Which is it?
I presume that the purpose of the second hole is to increase the number of height adjustment options. One hole would only allow about 2 inch increments, which is a pretty big interval for a jack stand.

Apparently, you didn't understand the question.

This picture shows two adjustment holes in the base. (That would be the part with three legs.)

This picture appears to show only one hole.

If the holes in the base are spaced at half the distance of the holes in the post, the options for height selection would be doubled. And the adjustment interval would be cut in half.

the ones I got from here have one hole in the base.

good solid stands.
